Hello!

My comps name is Elder Pajaro and he is from São Paulo. He talks super fast and is always talking. It is really funny being his comp. I will be picking up Dylan next Tuesday and after we will eat in the presidents house together then he goes to the field. He will be fine, its always a shock for the Americans but he will like it. 

So on a regular day we study in the morning like normal. Sometimes we play volleyball at 6 in the morning as our exercises:) and it is awesome! after we go to the office and do some things, then we eat at a restaurant. Then we go back to the office and start working again. We should leave at 5 to start to work, but Elder Pajaro doesn't know how to manage his time very well so we usually stay until 9. I will change that, I am already trying to help him.
Sister Gonzaga started a huge thing about the parents of everyone going to the Facebook of the mission. She was so happy and had this great idea to invite every parent to be apart of the page haha.
The mission home is a little far from here, but we never go to the mission home unless someone comes in from the mission. I will be the first person to see the package, one of my responsibilities is send all of the packages to the missionaries in the field. Also, I know so many things about EVERYONE. its weird, but there is a lot of stuff that no one knows but I know. haha

wow! I cant believe that Preston died. That is crazy. 

I am not needing anything right now, but I want the old shoe that they sent. Does the new shoe look like the other? hopefully, but I guess there isn't anything that you can do. just save the new pair at home!

There was almost nothing new this week, but we played volleyball for 4 hours today and I got a little burnt. It was really fun, but there was a girl that didn't play very well so I couldn't hit it very hard. 

Also! the family that I was working with in Sergipe got married last week and was baptized! Samhyr, the man got the Aaronic priesthood yesterday! This is the sealing that we might watch when you guys come to get me! I am excited. 

also! we baptized this week. A lady named Valma. I didn't teach her once, but I was here to see the baptism haha. It was good. I am trying to think of something funny that happened this week, but I cant think of anything. 

I was walking to the office and I accidentally kicked a traffic cone. It wasn't one of those heavy ones so it went flying and everyone looked at me hahahah.

LOVE ELDER JAKE LANGLOIS
